Yes, that wasn't a very helpful report, was it?

First of all, here's the custom command I'm using, to organize an
upcoming trip to New York:

("n" "New York Feb 2020"
         ((tags-todo "nyfeb2020")
          (agenda "is this string meaningless?"
                  ((org-agenda-start-day "2020-02-25")
                   (org-agenda-span 15))))
         ((org-agenda-tag-filter '("+nyfeb2020"))))

I edebug `org-agenda-redo', and hit "g". In this function,
`org-agenda-tag-filter' is nil. I don't know if it's supposed to be or
not, but it is.

The error arises out of `org-agenda-run-series', so we go there, and
find it comes from `org-let':

(let ((org-agenda-tag-filter '("+nyfeb2020")))
      (org-agenda-prepare name))

`org-agenda-run-series' gets called twice every time I update the
agenda; the error only arises from the first time. The
`org-agenda-tag-filter' variable is buffer-local to my custom agenda,
which is why Emacs complains that it's being let-bound. I don't see
where `org-agenda-tag-filter' is made buffer-local.

I hope that helps!
